Our experience — hard drive replacement in Dell laptops
At our service centre in Warsaw we’ve carried out 20 hard drive replacements in Dell laptops — it’s the brand we see most often for this type of failure. In total we’ve serviced nearly 200 Dell laptops, most commonly from the Inspiron, Latitude, XPS and Vostro series.

Laptop won’t turn on? It’s very often the drive
This is the most common misunderstanding we encounter with this service:
Someone comes in and says their laptop has broken because it won’t start — there’s a black screen or a blue screen. They report the fault as „laptop won’t turn on”. But after diagnostics it turns out it’s simply a problem with the drive. We replace the drive and the device works again.

When you’re looking for hard drive replacement in a laptop
You end up here if you’re looking for answers to questions like: laptop won’t start black screen, blue screen on laptop, SSD upgrade cost or laptop not detecting drive Warsaw. All of these usually lead to one service — drive replacement.
Symptoms — when to replace the drive in a Dell laptop
- Laptop won’t start — black screen, system won’t boot
- Blue screen appearing at startup or during use
- Message saying no boot device found
- The system freezes, files won’t open or disappear
- You want to upgrade to a faster or larger SSD
It’s worth knowing that SSDs don’t usually slow down gradually — most often they either work normally or stop working altogether. That’s why sudden failure without warning signs is a typical scenario with these drives.
What about my data
That’s the first question from most customers. The answer depends on the condition of the old drive:
- Drive is working — we transfer all data to the new drive
- Small amount of data — we transfer it free of charge when replacing the drive
- Larger amount of data — we quote individually and always agree with the customer beforehand
- Drive is damaged — we can recover the data; when done alongside the replacement, it works out cheaper because we’re doing two services at once
We never delete anything without your consent. We always discuss what to do with the contents of the old drive first.
How we select the new drive
- We check what type of drive your Dell model supports — SATA or NVMe
- We match the capacity to your actual needs, without overpaying
- We measure the new drive’s speed after installation — we check whether it’s running at full performance
- When replacing the drive, we can install and configure the operating system as a turnkey service
How disk replacement works at our service centre
1. Diagnosis
We check whether the disk is actually the cause of the problem.
2. Agreement
We discuss the choice of a new disk and what to do with your data.
3. Replacement and data
We install the new drive and transfer or recover your data.
4. Testing and collection
We measure the disk’s speed and hand over your laptop ready to use.
The above describes how the process works at our service centre. This is not a DIY guide — with a damaged drive, inexpert attempts can make later data recovery more difficult, so we recommend contacting a service centre.

Why Apenfix
Frequently asked questions
How much does disk replacement in a Dell laptop cost?
The price depends on the drive you choose and the scope of work — replacement only, or data transfer and system installation as well. Current rates can be found in the price list.
Laptop won’t turn on — is it definitely the disk?
Very often, yes. A black or blue screen at startup is one of the most common symptoms of storage drive failure. A free inspection will show whether that’s the cause.
Will I lose my data when replacing the drive?
No, not if you don’t want to. When the old drive is working, we transfer the data to the new one. For small amounts of data, we do this free of charge. If the drive is damaged, we can attempt data recovery — it works out cheaper when done alongside the replacement.
How long does drive replacement take?
Usually 1–3 working days. The replacement itself can be quicker — most of the time goes into transferring or recovering data.
Is it worth installing the system at the same time?
Usually, yes. A new drive is a good opportunity for a clean Windows installation with drivers — you collect your laptop ready to use, and two services together work out cheaper.
Prices for all services can be found in our price list.
